The OD Network of Chicago February program falls on Valentine's Day. Rather than writing it off as a bad evening to hold a professional event or changing its regular second Thursday meeting time, this regional is taking advantage of this holiday and using Open Space to explore three love-oriented issues:

• How to use OD skills to help (directly or indirectly) under-served communities• How to use OD skills to build community within organizations or systems• How to create and sustain communities of OD practitioners so that we are nurtured rather than depleted by our own efforts

Come out instead of staying home eating bon-bons--and be sure to bring any loved ones who might otherwise feel neglected. Whether you hate or love Valentine's Day, there's something for everyone at this OD & Community Open Space!
